Logistics

Industrial facilities are under increasing pressure to deliver faster, operate without interruption, and adapt to evolving technologies. We engineer the systems that bring facilities online quickly while supporting long-term performance and reliability. Our team has engineered infrastructure supporting 250+ million square feet of warehouse space for producing, housing, and shipping products around the world.

From cold storage and e-commerce distribution to advanced manufacturing environments driven by automation, Henderson designs building systems that align with operational demands from the start. While facility types vary, the goal does not. We work to ensure your building is functional, flexible, and resilient.

We thrive in complexity. From achieving net-zero energy performance to delivering LEED Gold and other high-performance certifications, our team is driven to go beyond standard solutions. For us, projects don’t end at completion - we're committed to being your partner for the life of the building. Through collaborative partnership, our team supports your operations from early planning through design, construction, commissioning, and ongoing system optimization. The result is infrastructure designed to perform on day one - and continue evolving with your operations over time.

RELATED PROJECTS

Today’s warehouses and distribution centers have evolved to keep up with ever-changing technology and consumer demand for faster shipping.
